The few. The proud. The very, very hot. What woman doesn’t love a man in—or out of—uniform? Join one of romance’s hottest new stars, Amy J. Fetzer, as she serves up some of the hunkiest heroes ever to leave boot camp in three stories so deliciously sexy, you’ll want to enlist now…
Tell It To The Marines contains 3 short stories by Amy Fetzer:
1. Hot Conflict
Rule number one for “How to Throw a Wedding”: Don’t get kidnapped. Rule number two? Don’t let your rescuer be DJ McAllister, as in tall, dark, and secretive with a bod to die for. As in the man who pushed wedding planner Mary Grace Heyward away once and left her heartbroken for, um, well forever. But now that they’re running for their lives (so that’s what it takes to get a man to commit!), the looks DJ’s giving her tell another story, one that’s making her very, very warm. And Mary Grace’s mission is clear: Indulge the hot Marine’s every fantasy and secure a victory of the everlasting kind…
2. Hot Landing Zone
The mission went bad, really bad. And Jake Mackenzie blames Dr. Katherine Collier, the egghead scientist his team was rescuing from terrorists. If she’d just obeyed his orders they wouldn’t be stranded—alone—on a remote island with no way off. But hell, Jake’s a Marine. He’ll improvise, adapt, and overcome…as long as the drop-dead gorgeous Katherine stops accidentally setting off his booby traps, prancing around in what’s left of her clothing, and driving him wild with desire. Protecting her is his sworn duty, and the lady seems to have some specific requests in that area…
3. Hot Target
Rick Cahill’s got his orders: Drop into the Amazon and pick up American Peace Corp volunteer Sam Previn. Who knew Sam was actually Samantha, a beautiful redhead with a temper to match? And who knew the Colombian drug cartels would be after them? On the run in the jungle, searching secluded spots for shelter, Rick has to remind himself that Sam is off-limits, no matter how it unhinges him every time her skin brushes his. But when the savvy Sam starts speaking in military abbreviations and can load a sidearm without looking, it’s clear she’s something special—and just Rick’s type…

Harry is utterly unconcerned about his status…until his latest lightskirt abandons him.
Who will win this game of love?
Enter Lady Molly Fairbanks. Harry’s childhood friend—actually, “foe” is more like it—is the most unlikely companion of all. She’s attractive but hot-headed, and in no mood for games. Besides, what could the self-indulgent Harry possibly know about what makes a woman delectable? It’s time for Molly to teach him a lesson once and for all…but will it lead to “happily ever after?”

Abducted on her way to boarding school, a terrified Catherine Enderly was brought from England to the coast of Ireland, the prisoner of the angry and powerful young Sean Culhane—a man sworn to vengeance against her family.
Frightened but defiant, the young countess met her captor with a strength that belied her fragile loveliness. But even as Sean vowed to have his revenge on Catherine, with each encounter he became more attracted to her. Her fiery innocence was a seduction that lured the passions of long smoldering hostility into a blazing inferno of desire.
Locked in a love-hate duel, he did not suspect that the captivating beauty who fought him with such tenacity was struggling desperately against her own awakened desires, and that his touch had become the burning reminder that the fierce hatred she felt for him had become an all-consuming love.
